"Once a rural Airport Sky Harbor International Airport is today one of the busiest airports serving the Southwest. 14 major airlines making daily stops in Phoenix.. Phoenix Sky Harbor also provides convenient access to the Arizona cities of Tucson, Prescott, Sedona, and Flagstaff. Many travelers use Sky Harbor en route to Arizona's wealth of historic Native American sites and national parks, including the Grand Canyon. Sky Harbor is bathed in sunshine and surrounded by cacti, mountains, and mesquite, only moments away from the central business district.."
It has a very nice Starbucks with very fresh Lemon Bar at Terminal 4 East Lobby
For avoiding ugly Paris CDG Airport I flew with BA from Germany to London/UK then directly without any stop overs into Phoenix/AZ. I highly recommend booking with BA. Leave a Comment

The best way to get to Phoenix is to fly into Phx, SkyHarbor International Airport.
Once you get here, Do Not rely on 'city busses' to get you around. They are not very reliable. The best thing to do is to rent a car from the airport when you fly in. Or take a shuttle bus from the airport to your hotel/motel then use cabs or rental cars. Phoenix is not the safest place for bicyclers although you do see a few of them.
Beware: 19 April 2001 ... gas prices $1.50-$1.61
(WOW LOL ... here's a gas update ... as of dec. 2006 gas prices are about $3.00/gallon) (ever'one thank the dayum texan president.... Thank You [terrorist] Bush!!! Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

With three separate terminals connected by a free 24-hour shuttle bus, the airport is busy but well-organized. Free telephones near the baggage claim area connect you with many hotels and motels. Taxis waiting outside the airport charge widely varying fares, so ask first. Phoenix Transit buses are the cheapest way into town. They depart about every 30 minutes Monday–Saturday. Leave a Comment

I think the best flight (although the necessarily the cheapest) from London Heathrow to Phoenix return is British Airways. This is the only direct flight currently operating from England.
Travelling directly to your final destination in the States will prevent you from missing your connection flight.
When I first flew out to Phoenix, I had to change planes in Cincinnetti. Where ever you enter the States you have to go through customs, collecting your bags and checking them back in again. This is how we missed our flight as our plane was late landing in Cincinnetti we only had 50 minutes to clear customs.
If you do not get a direct flight, its probably advisable to have atleast a 2 hr change over time.
Sky Harbour is a huge airport with many different terminals. The duty free is disappointing. It can be reached by highway 143, which connects to I-10 and the 202. Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

When flying into Phoenix during the summer months, the heat thermals make landing quite bumpy. Be prepared. Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

The Airport I would say was nice. Other than the $15 dollar charge for baggage check I didn't mind it at all. Before you even go through security there were all sorts of restaurants and shops. From Mc Donalds to Chili's, and little Mexican food places. I ate at one of the small venues and had a GIANT platter of exploding nachos! By the way not a great idea when getting on the plane next to a stranger. lol
I flew US Airways, there was a slight delay but nothing serious. I was not impressed by the inside of the plane AT ALL. NO screens for movies, and bad service from flight attendance. They acted like it was a burden if you said yes for wanting a drink.
And the WORST part was the pilot, on the runway going fast for take off the plane started shaking! I grabbed the strange man next to me and he said, "don't grab me! I'm more scared than you are!" That didn't reassure me in anyway. The worst part about it was the pilot never announced why we started shaking and the attendance didn't check on us. I didn't like that at all.
On our descent there was VERY heavy turbulence. And again no word as to why or ask if we needed anything. Maybe I'm just a plane snob but I thought it was terrible and dont want to fly U.S. Airways for those reasons. Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane
